At York St John, our mature learners make up around a fifth of our student population.

Starting university as a mature student
As you may have had a gap in your education, we strongly encourage you to attend as many additional support sessions in Welcome Week as you can. This will help you become more familiar with how things work at university and where to ask for help if you need it. You will find information about theses additional sessions at www.yorksj.ac.uk/welcome
The York St John Students' Union has a Mature and Commuting Students Network, run by and for students. If you would like to join please visit YSJSU in person or online.
